In Alberta we have suffered for nearly 4 years. It will be exciting to see them go! The tax is 0.2% on the value of a home that exceeds $3 million, and 0.4% on the value of a home that exceeds $4 million. If your home is $3.9M we are literally talking about an additional $180. Cry me a river. If the person has Laons for business, maybe a mortgage of a million or so and obligations for cars and kids in university and lines of credit.

Meanwhile I live in Germany and opiates have the bad record to cause addiction while other painkillers are working well too. Like Paracetamol, Tilidine, Flupirtin, Metamizol-natrium. Alternative: Osteopathy, acupuncture Let the druggies die. Why are we spending resources and funding sites for druggies to shoot up? but maybe, perhaps they will
